    Chicken Wings
    Carla B.

    I first tried Terrapin Station as a part of a Yelp event but have been back with my daughter three times now. [[HIGHLIGHT]]On our first visit, my daughter fell in love. She loves the set up, food, and even has a favorite waitress.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I've experienced their happy hour deals and tried a few items on the menu. My favorite item is the Terrapin Burger and I liked their wings. My daughter loves the burgers too. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The Inside is decorated like a traditional sports bar but it has a family friendly atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I have always gotten great service when visiting and I will definitely return.

    Naked burger
    Amy S.

    What a great "neighborhood bar/restaurant ". Great selection of food. Pleasant/friendly/efficient waitress. We got appetizers, side salads, and burgers. All were very flavorful and delicious. The side salads were HUGE and fresh. PRETZELS AND BEER CHEESE is a must have. Various burgers were all spot on. Oh and make sure you leave some room for dessert. Omg! FRIED OREOS W/ VANILLA ICE CREAM to die for. Definitely will be back again.

    Classic Caesar
    Sara Z.

    Great causal dinner spot! We stopped in for a weeknight dinner after a Costco Run. I ordered the classic burger with a Caesar salad and deviled eggs as our appetizer. All of the food was delicious. The burgers are the star items, but the deviled eggs have crab and old bay so definitely get them. I was also pleasantly surprised by the salad, I loved the dressing and big chunks of cheese. Our server was friendly but they seemed a little busy, maybe a little short staffed. We received the appetizer after the entrees, and we didn't get a water refill until almost the end of the meal. We were not in a rush or anything so not a big deal, I'll certainly be back!

    Steak and Cheese... So good and perfectly seasoned

    We've been living in the area for years and I've been shopping in this shopping center since moving here. We finally decided to try this place out and I'M SO GLAD WE DID!!! The customer service was friendly and helpful. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The establishment was clean and atmosphere was nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food was delicious. I had the Steak and Cheese with Onion Rings and a side of Calamari. My husband had the Bacon Cheddar Burger with Fries. We will be back in the near future. I recommend. *Husband's food not pictured*

    I went to the restaurant the other night for a Yelp Event. I decided to go back again for lunch because the food from the event was good. I ordered a Turkey Burger with fries. Both were good. The sauce that comes on the burger was ok. I got the sauce on the side. The service was good. I ordered my food over the phone. When I got there, it was ready. The inside of the place is very nice. It's like a sports bar and restaurant. It have UMD decorations. They also have tvs and a bar.

    Crabcake Sandwich
    Derrick T.

    We ended up going 3 nights in a row while visiting from TN! Great service! Great food! Calamari, onion rings, crab cake sandwich and bison burger were all delicious! Highly recommended!

    Terrapin Burger and The Dip
    Te-Mika W.

    These burgers are the real deal. We asked before we ordered whether they were hand formed or from patties, the server looked at us like it was an insult. Three different cuts of meat (I don't remember what), but you taste the quality. Hubby and I got a Terrapin Burger and The Dip (which is a burger, not a French dip sandwich). So good. It is giving our favorite burger spot (also local) a run for the money. The fries were really good too. The onion rings were not our favorite- fried hard - so we'll pass on those next time, and there will be a next time.

    On our way home and decided to try out this new spot. The food was delicious!! Service was friendly and quick. We tried their deviled eggs which were great! We devoured them before I remembered to take a picture. For our meals, we ordered the Chicken and Cheese which is their version of the Philly chicken cheesesteak. It was really good!! We also had the Terrapin Burger which was their mushroom Swiss burger. Also delicious. Fries are super crispy.. all in all great experience. Will definitely be back.

    When I saw that the late lamented Hard Times had been replaced by a place with a similar menu, I had to try it out. TL;DR I was underwhelmed. The only notable change to the interior was the absence of the jukebox. The alarms I heard going off turned out to be automated cookers. I ordered the Classic burger ($17). The taste of the curated beef did not impress me, and it was definitely cooked beyond the requested medium rare. The toppings didn't add much to the flavor. And you have to ask if you want lettuce and tomato. Obviously, they are not parrotheads, even though they got the Heinz 57 right. My expectations for the fries might have been set too high by just having watched America's Test Kitchen make a batch, but these did not impress. Crisp but not browned, little flavor. Maybe they need to check the settings on that robot? Courteous service, clean restrooms, lots of TV screens. Food needs work. I can get a better burger for the money. Just OK.

Ive never been here on a weekend day. Its also great to support a business where the entire staff are deaf. I didnt figure this out until after a few visits and each time, the person pouring my draft was using sign language and reading my lips to help me. Beers have always been good. This time I had a JRA, which is a hoppy lager and very good. Mom had a fancy cola. It would be fun if they did a happy hour too. There's always a burger food truck parked here, but have never tried it. We sat outside, soaked up the sun like two lizards, had good conversation and enjoyed the beautiful day.

I've been self-teaching myself sign language, and having the opportunity to come here and get some real one-on-one interaction and practice has been incredible. It's one thing to study on your own, but being able to engage in person in such a welcoming, supportive environment has been absolutely amazing. That kind of experience is rare -- and so appreciated. The atmosphere is relaxed, inclusive, and genuinely warm. The outdoor space is spacious and perfect for soaking up the sun, and we love that food trucks rotate through -- it makes every visit feel a little different. And Magnolia (our mini dachshund) is clearly a fan too. She was stretched out in the sunshine, completely relaxed, soaking it all in like she owned the place. Watching her sprawl out and enjoy herself just added to the whole experience. Great beer, great people, great vibes. We'll definitely keep coming back.

This brewery & restaurant was a delight to visit and so glad I gave it a try. I needed some dinner a few days ago so decided to stop in on a Friday night. The place is beautiful with high ceilings and gives a spacious airy vibe thats laid back. There are also some Maryland flags hanging tastefully, nice touch. I sat at the bar and was quickly greeted by a very nice bartender. I started off with the Hike the Alps Hefeweizen and it was exactly the kind of hefe I like, hoppy, flavorful and definitely not bitter. Excellent beer! I also had their noodle salad dish and this was surprisingly very good. Very light, with lots of spinach and veggies and it was tasty with no guilt! I next wanted to try either their Potomac Punch or Georgia Ave beers, and was torn about the two, so the bartender let me taste both. The Georgia Ave beer is a peach sour, and since its only Spring and not yet stifling hot, a sour wasnt going to work for me just yet. I tried the Potomac Punch and this was fantastic, its an American wheat beer and you could taste the fruity notes, so very good! I didnt want a full 16 oz, so opted for a 5 oz. pour. Everything about this place was lovely! You will definitely find me coming back here again! And its cool they have a bunch of tables outside, would love to come back here, have a beer and shoot the breeze with my DMV peeps! Denizens gets five plus stars from me!

After all, it is a brewery! I opted for an IPA, my friend also ordered a beer (Dark & Stormy, a dark beer), and the other ordered a drink. Although my beer was 11%, it wasn't bitter and tasted juicy! It was good. I got the fish & chips w/coleslaw, one friend ordered onion rings and the other ordered salmon. Those onion rings were banging! and the coleslaw was pretty good too.
